Hi Catherine
My main concern would not be schooling but how you will cope financially if you do not have jobs to come to.
Unemployment is rising here in Cyprus and wages for those who are lucky enough to have a job are very low compared to the UK.
To be absolutely honest with you Cyprus is not ideal for families with school age children as the cost of schooling is high. Secondary schooling will cost up to 10K per year per child and your oldest child is too old to adapt to local schooling so would need to go to private schools.
We see families many returning to the UK because they cannot afford to live here and their children suffer as their schooling has been disrupted.
I know this is not what you want to hear but my advice is to make sure you have done your homework very very thoroughly before making the move.
